Writing An Extension Help

Recommended Posts

Hi. I wanted to attempt to write an extension to Vortex. But I am a bit of a noob. Is there a template available to get me stated? Thanks.

Hi Zanderat,

 

It depends what you want to create. For game extensions we have have a help page on the wiki. For more advanced extensions, there's a sample available in the Vortex Git repo.

Thanks!

 

I want to attempt an unofficial extension that will handle BSA's similarly to how MO2 does. Tannin told me that Vortex already has the capability but he doesn't want to use it because of inexperienced users. But he did give me some code to start:

const arch: types.IArchiveHandler = await context.api.openArchive('path/to/mod/resource.bsa');await arch.extractAll('path/to/mod');
